Contracts

What is a Contract and Do You Need One?

If you’ve ever done work for hire, the answer to ‘do I need a contract (an agreement)’ is YES! You should never do work for money unless there is something written down and agreed upon. Even if the work being done if for a friend or family member. Especially if its a family member.

When creating a contract you’re going to have at least 4 main parts to a contract:

  • ID the Players
  • Scope of Work
  • Payment
  • Schedule of Work

As always, please consult with a lawyer for your specific needs and verbiage for your contract.
